As Co-Founder & CEO of BookLive, I combine my entrepreneurialism, musicianship and web development skills to bring the best wedding music performances to couples in Milwaukee, Chicago, and New York.

An active performer in the Milwaukee and Denver area, Jared performs violin and viola regularly for Dream City Strings, the Sheboygan Symphony Orchestra, and several local theaters and churches.

As a full stack web developer and designer, I have been the sole developer of the BookLive platform. Additionally, I provide freelance web development and design to local businesses.

He currently leads a team of nearly 100 auditioned musicians in Wisconsin, Illinois, and New York who are all devoted to the art of enhancing weddings with live classical, jazz and pop covers. Jared grew the Dream City Strings from a small group of frustrated musicians to a robust team who has earned the praise of over 140 recently-married couples in just over a year. In addition to spearheading sales and marketing activity, he developed a custom CRM and suite of music-planning tools specifically suited to our needs using the Laravel 5.5 Framework.
